Another Tale From Another English Town Lyrics

They're not fit to breathe our air, to breathe our air
They've been warned a thousand times this year
We were sold on a sweet young lie, a sweet young lie
Another tale from another English town, another English town

It's getting hard to breathe 'round here to think 'round here
We've been sold a thousand lies this year
We just wanted the quiet life, the quiet life
But they won't stop 'til they see us in the ground, 'til they see us in the ground

We don't want to fight, we want the quiet life
We wish our lives away, we wish our lives away

We don't want to fight, we want the quiet life
We wish our lives away, we wish our lives away

They're coming any day, they'll be here any day

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
